Some people thinks that Anor and/or the flame of Anor has its name because of the cityname of Minas Anor, but it is the reverse. It is the cityname that comes from the word Anor, meaning sun. And I doubt there is any power in Minas Anor, that could have helped Gandalf when he was duelling a balrog. It is probably correct when assumed that the flame of Anor has something to do with either Ilúvatar or the Valar, since they are the only one with the power to help him at that time.
